Princess Poly found the king's stash of garden plans and sees that the area of each plot is described as a polynomial. She has new fencing to put around the gardens, but each section of fencing is labeled with a polynomial. In order to determine which section of fencing belongs to which plot of garden, she'll need to use the theorems learned in this lesson to help determine the correct placement.
The label on the first section of fencing shows that it can fence an area of p(x) where p(x)=x3−4x2−7x+10. Princess Poly reads the map of the garden and thinks that this section of fencing might fence in a rectangular region whose side has a measure marked as b(x)=x−5.
What is the value of p(5)?
